Confocal microscopy of plasmodium stages immuno-stained with PfABCG antiserum. Immuno-histochemical staining of 3D7 cultured parasites with PfABCG antiserum. Columns 1-3 show PfABCG immuno-histochemical staining resolved with Alexa-fluor 488-labeled goat anti-rabbit secondary antibody (Green), counterstaining of nuclear DNA with DAPI (Blue), and differential interference contrast of infected erythrocyte, respectively. Rows A-D show early trophozoites, late trophozoites schizonts and female gametocyte stage V stained with PfABCG antiserum, respectively. Column 4 shows the merge of column 1 and 2, without Differential Interference Contrast (DIC). White arrowheads indicate the intensely stained structures beneath the parasite's plasma membrane.
